How many freaking TEs are on our active roster??? Having 4 of them, you would think that at least one of them would be average...

We play musical chairs with them it's hard t'say if they're building any consistency. Both Steph and Tommy have flashed the last two weeks though so here's hoping. They're both in their 3rd and 2nd years respectively.

We need a TE

Yeah. We should've made that trade for Hock, could've probably given up a little bit less than the Vikes did so they could move him out of division. A legit TE is a great safety blanket and weapon for a young QB. Everything we do this offseason needs to be setting up for a rookie QB (Young or Stroud ideally) to have success. Coaching, FA, rest of the draft, etc.

 

OL is pretty well set but I'd like to add some more legitimate depth there. DJ is a good start at WR, we'll see how TMJ does the rest of the year but ideally we upgrade on him at WR2 and TE significantly this offseason. Also, I'd like to see us take a shot on a mid round RB to pair with Foreman, especially one who can catch the ball. Chuba was fine a few weeks ago but he's really not that explosive and very mistake prone. Foreman has been great since we traded CMC but I'm not sold on him as our mid/long term starter at HB.

Chuba had a higher average than Foreman in that same game, and that's with Foreman even breaking one. He's certainly more explosive, and has the speed to boot.

I'm trying to find that graphic they displayed on the screen during the game. 

I just remember seeing Derrick Henry as #1, Cmc as #2, Donte and Chubba also listed among the qualifying college running backs. I just cant recall the title they were talking about. 

As for Chubba... he is the more explosive option. Foreman is who you bring in after the defense is gassed. He's a bruiser that's sneaky fast. Chubba is the speedy - can run one in if he hits the hole type. If he has an initial hole to run through, he's actually pretty dangerous. He hasn't had that enough here to show that ability since we drafted him. The last TD he scored comes to mind.

Chubba behind this line is a different player. Or at the least "should" be. Foreman is who he was last year, Rhule just didn't have the smarts to use him. I thought at the very least he'd b used near the goal line and in short yardage situations... nope.

I don't even know where to begin...this is the NFL and average means sucks.  You would be correct, our TEs suck.

    • They know within 15 mins.  Many moons ago skins drafted Heath Shuler at like 5th overall and Gus Frerotte in the late rounds. You know the plan, its Heaths team. Old OLman stink said within 15 minutes they knew Gus was the better QB.  I didn't need 15 or players on the same field, I just knew like Bill said "he better walk on water", which he hasn't. I do blame tepper mainly for it, he spend the greater part of 2 year telling everyone Watson would be a panther......and fail....but a great fail...then Stanford turned panthers down.....tepper was beyond pissed and wanted a QB. He forced the trade and picked BY......and now by .....some grace of the gods formed a team with 4 QBs of no hope...... insane given the other roster spots.....
    • He definitely knows nothing about the Panthers, but there’s no denying he’s a pioneer in this whole draft grading and mock draft field.
    • I actually say wait five years since that's long enough to know if a player  became something worthy enough for a long term contract, whether with their original team or someone else. Therefore... 1 (8): Jaycee Horn - Has been questions about his durability but when he's healthy, he plays at a high level. Should we have drafted Pat Surtain or Micah Parsons, however? Arguably could’ve done better, but he's still here so that's a W pick. 2 (59): Terrance Marshall - Yet another classic Panther WR bust. I don’t recall seeing anything in his college tape that made me excited about drafting him in the first place.  3 (70): Brady Christensen - Proved to be a versatile player on the O-line.  As of now, we haven’t signed him back and I feel that we should. That's enough to say he was a solid draft pick. 3 (83): Tommy Tremble - Hasn't emerged as a consistent productive player, but he's had his moments here and there. We can certainly do better, but we haven’t found that guy yet so he still has some utility. W because he's not Ian Thomas. 4 (126): Chuba Hubbard - Surprise of the draft. It took time, but he's now our lead back.  5 (158): Daviyon Nixon - Had a half a sack with us and... that's it. I think I liked what I saw but it didn't pan out. 5 (166): Keith Taylor - Another guy I liked but only stuck around for two years. Played for a few other teams but nothing really to note. 6 (193): Deonte Brown - I really thought this guy was going to be a steal. He might’ve been the guy that had weight issues and never really got a handle on it. 6 (204): Shi Smith - He scored double the touchdowns that Marshall did in his short time here; it was two. Yeah, the Panthers wide receiver history is rather bleak. 6 (222): Thomas Fletcher - I had to look it up but he was a long snapper. JJ Jansen is immortal, so it was a wasted draft pick. 7 (232): Phil Hoskins - Actually recorded a sack here in his short career. Wish I could remember it.   Surprisingly not a bad draft when you have two good/great starters and a JAG that's still here, plus a good rotation guy most would like to keep.
